短释义:
The adjective temperamental can also be used to describe objects that behave unpredictably. A temperamental air conditioner can make for a long, hot summer. Fortunately, you’re not temperamental or you might have smashed it to bits by now. The second “e” in temperamental gets swallowed so that it sounds like “temp-ra-MENT-al” (four syllables).
如果您的情绪变化迅速且剧烈,人们可能会认为您喜怒无常。如果你不是那么脾气暴躁,也许你的朋友会对你更加敞开心扉。我说错了吗?
长释义:
The adjective temperamental can also be used to describe objects that behave unpredictably. A temperamental air conditioner can make for a long, hot summer. Fortunately, you’re not temperamental or you might have smashed it to bits by now. The second “e” in temperamental gets swallowed so that it sounds like “temp-ra-MENT-al” (four syllables).
形容词气质的也可以用来描述行为不可预测的物体。一台脾气暴躁的空调可以让你度过一个漫长而炎热的夏天。幸运的是,你脾气不太好,否则你现在可能已经把它摔得粉碎了。气质中的第二个“e”被吞掉,所以听起来像“temp-ra-MENT-al”(四个音节)。
